Accessories Crazy


I just bought some stuff for my new UMPC.


  1. 120Gb 2.5" Mobile HDD with USB 2.0 Enclosure

  2. 1 Gb Transcend USB 2.0 Flash Disk

  3. 1 A4TECH USB Travel Mouse

  4. 1 A4TECH USB mini Keyboard

I got the HDD since 40Gb just ain't enough for me. I got the USB flash stick thinking I could use it for Vista Readyboost but apparently it's not enough that the stick is USB 2.0 it has to have a transfer rate of atleast 2.5Mb/sec so I might have it exchanged when these become available. As I commented on my mini-review the built-in keyboard on the UX isn't really the best for text entry so I got a USB keyboard [since the UX's cradle only has USB ports] Still saving up to get a bigass monitor looking at the 19" LG LCD [y'all know my eyes are shot so I think this should be prioritized] also looking for a USB 2.0 DVD/RW External drive. I'd probably buy the monitor first to complete my office setup. I am running out of USB ports too so I might need to get a USB port replicator too. Ah the madness! I'm also waiting for the Vista on board notebooks to populate the local market [to date I've only seen a few Vista notebooks and all of them either run Vista Home Basic or Home Premium] I will probably get a more powerful notebook to replace my MSI, maybe I will get something that can run Vista Ultimate :o) of course it has to be 12" or less.

Coron Labor Day Weekend Getaway

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau. [The water is FIIIIINE!!!] [dinner at Bistro Coron] [Happy Birthday Loralee :D] Coron is one heck of a lovely place… just remember to bring mosquito repellent. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bnycastro/tags/coron_0509

Darth Kegaw to Treo 750: It is Useless to Resist

I have never been one to keep my devices *as is* when it comes to the OS/Firmware… This 2nd Treo 750 will be no different. So I dusted off my old Cheetah files [trivia: the Treo 750 is codenamed HTC Cheetah] and decided to HARD SPL [this allows for non-carrier branded ROMs to be loaded] and flashed it to a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen… and the ROM loaded without any issues. I did notice that Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 was not included in this ROM not really a problem since I own the software as well.  I’m currently syncing my PIM data and will be installing my apps over the next few days.
